SALTEX ANNOUNCE FREE PARKING

The organisers of SALTEX, the Grounds Management Association (GMA), have announced they have partnered with the Football Foundation to provide free car parking for all attendees this year - an initiative jointly funded by both organisations.

They say this initiative directly responds to feedback from visitor research that highlighted affordability as a key priority. 

The GMA have also said that November's staging has seen a 10% year-on-year increase in visitor registrations

Chris Smith, head of programmes at the Football Foundation said, “It’s great that attendance this year has grown once again and that together we've been able to provide more people with the opportunity to attend SALTEX with the addition of free car parking for all attendees.

Geoff Webb, CEO of the GMA, added, "We are delighted to see such strong growth in visitor registrations this year. It demonstrates that SALTEX continues to be the place where the industry comes together to share knowledge, discover innovation, and celebrate progress. The introduction of free car parking in partnership with the Football Foundation is another way we’re adding value to the visitor experience."
